Conference Hotels

 

Three hotels have been contracted to provide preferred rates for the InterPore meeting. The hotels are located across the street from the convention center in the Arts and Warehouse District, and were selected to provide good accessibility to the meeting location as well as good value. 

Please book your stay at these hotels if possible, as InterPore has entered into contracts with significant room commitments in order to ensure that attendees receive good rates even if the local demand and prices spike during the week of the conference.

 


Hampton Inn and Suites Convention Center

 

The Hampton Inn is a beautifully restored property in a landmark building in the Warehouse District.  It is directly across the street from the part of the Convention Center where the InterPore conference will be held, and is the only one of the conference hotels for which breakfast is included in the price. A limited number of suites are available at a slightly higher rate in addition to the rooms listed below. (The difference in price for single and double occupancy is for the included breakfast.)

 

Price: $169+tax (single occupancy); $179+tax (double occupancy)
